Training of Cutting Horses Continues with Patience and Skill
The article follows Rankin and Bottoms as they train cutting horses, stressing slow, steady work to gain trust, handling and sacking, and proper use of the spur. They describe finishing horses to perform cattle work, with a year needed to develop a top cutting horse. Their best horse Bert Star King, a three year old owned by Dr. C. C. Vierling, is entered in several contests but has not yet placed. The pair emphasize humane, firm training and deep rapport with horses.
